Patent EP-0643489-A1 (EP)
Inventor: TADDIKEN ALBERT H
IPC: H03M7/02
Filed: 1994-05-24
Abstract: Multiple resonant tunneling devices offer significant advantages for realizing circuits which efficiently convert values represented by multivalued number systems to conventional binary representation. In one form of the invention, a number represented by a range-4 base-2 word is converted into a conventional binary word (range-2 base-2) having the same value. The conversion is accomplished by a series of decomposition stages  53 , each decomposition stage  53  producing an interim range-4 base-2 word and a binary digit, which becomes one of the digits of the binary output word. Preferably, the decomposition at each stage is accomplished by a set of range-4 base-2 to binary converters  50 , each of which operates on a single digit of the interim word. Preferably, summation circuits  52  sum outputs of adjoining range-4 base-2 converters  50  to form the new interim word. The least significant digit of the output of the decomposition stage becomes a digit of the output binary word. Preferably, the range-4 base-2 to binary converters  50  are multi-level folding circuits  54  connected by a voltage divider. Preferably, the multi-level folding circuits contain multiple-peak resonant tunneling transistors  56  (e.g. an FET  58  and a multiple-peak resonant tunneling diode  60 ) which exhibit multiple negative differential transconductance. The novel circuits presented allow the results of multivalued logic operations to be translated to binary representation at very high speed. Additionally, because they make use of resonant tunneling devices, the novel converter circuits described herein may be fabricated with very few components.

IPC: G06T5/00
Filed: 1994-07-05
Abstract: The present invention is intended to exactly extract a feature-region along its contour line without erroneously extracting any moving object other than the feature-region. An extraction signal from a feature-region main-portion extracting circuit(1) is sent to a small region eliminating circuit (2) whereby an erroneously extracted small region is detected and eliminated as an erroneously extracted noisy portion. The small region eliminating circuit(2) compares a small region with four detection patterns, discriminates it as a region other than the feature face-region if no match is found and causes a center pixel of a window of 3 × 3 pixels to have a logical value of zero. An output of the small region eliminating circuit (2) is sent to a blank filling circuit (3) which compares its input with four detection patterns, discriminates it as a face-region if a match is found and makes a central pixel of a window of 13 × 13 pixels have a logical value of 1. The above-mentioned extraction method can reliably extract features of the face-region and is free from the erroneous extraction of any moving object other than the face.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a monitoring apparatus for an alarm device 
for situations wherein the alarm device is provided at a location remote from 
the alarm device drive side, which can verify from the alarm device drive side 
if an audible alarm has sounded.  
The drive of the alarm device (1) is stopped by switching off a drive switch 
(12) on the alarm device drive side (A). After stopping the drive of the alarm 
device (1) an audible alarm generation sensed signal from the response 
device (2) on the alarm device side (B) is received at the alarm device drive 
side (A) though the feeder (a). Then, after the audible alarm generation 
sensed signal has stopped, and on receipt of a verification signal verifying 
that the alarm device drive side (B) has returned to the original condition, a 
verification output (F3) for the audible alarm generation is generated at the 
alarm device drive side (A).

Abstract: A more rapid charging of an integrating capacitor (18) of a PLL is provided when large frequency changes are desired. In one embodiment, the phase locked loop (PLL) circuit (10) sinks or sources current to charge or discharge the integrating capacitor (18). A threshold voltage proportional to a current through the capacitor turns on a circuit which sinks or sources more current of the proper polarity to the integrating capacitor (18) from an external source (+Vcc, -Vcc) until a PLL lock is achieved. Once the lock is achieved, if a small correction current is required by the PLL, the small correction current is below a threshold required to actuate the augmenting circuit (Q1, Q2, 20, 36), and the PLL loop behaves in the usual manner as if the augmenting circuit (Q1, Q2, 20, 36) were not present. In another embodiment, the integrating capacitor (18) is reduced in value by switchably connecting a second capacitor (40) in series with the integrating capacitor (18) so that the total reduced capacitance of reduced value can be charged more quickly.
